The Allahabad HC has ordered that Question No. 9 of Booklet C (and its equivalent questions across all sets) be re-evaluated by treating both options 'B' and 'D' as correct answers. The revised CLAT Score 2026 shall not affect candidates who have already been allotted seats in Round 1 of CLAT UG 2026 counselling. Hence, the answer key and result will be revised.

The 'exit' from CLAT counselling means leave the counselling process; and the student will not be considered for further rounds. This option allows candidates to withdraw from the admission process entirely at any time after registration. If a seat was previously allocated and accepted (via Freeze/Float), exiting results in forfeiture of the confirmation fee. The option is available within the Consortium of NLUs portal.

Freeze option in CLAT Counselling means accept the NLU seat, lock it, and opt-out of the upgrade process. In this case, the fee becomes non-refundable and has to be paid before the last date. The candidate is removed from the counseling process for future rounds.

Yes, the CLAT counselling fee is refundable if no seat is allotted or if a student withdraws before the final date. A penalty of INR 5,000 may be applied if a seat is frozen and later withdrawn after May 30th.
